clinging on to colour

I dried the roses in my December birthday bouquet from my son, Neil. The pink ones have kept their colour.

For rainbow2017 I'm following the six-band rainbow: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, and adding pink as I find indigo both elusive and boring.

Sam, no but I guess I could spray it with something?!

@quietpurplehaze The rose "sprays" that I have smelt are not very real!! I hope you can find one that does :)

[Merrelyn]

Lovely shot, Hazel. It has held it's colour nicely :)
